Game Mechanics: Brusco's Bombastic Bellow 55 bard stun

[Silikten]

Here is the details for the spell:

Details
1 : Stun for 8.0* seconds (*some player-cast stuns are capped at 4 seconds)
2 : Decrease Hitpoints by 222

Here you can see I was stunned for 15 seconds. It seems the epic is modifying the stun as well as the damage component. Just curious if this is working as intended.

Naked at bind, escapes Tune, Tune so bad.

[Mingo]

14 second stun. I would also like to see the modifier that makes a 222 dmg stun land for 267 in pvp. Seems like after pvp mitigation that should be lower, no?

[Colgate]

bard epic amplifies the damage

222 * 1.8 * 0.67 = 267.732

damage sounds right but that's assuming that none of the damage was mitigated and that's retarded considering this is a magic based spell with no resist modifier

[Silent]

Will follow up with logs, But this is something that needs to be looked into immediately. I am not sure how it was passed over or never used prior with the whole tstaff/skean nerf. Maybe bards just didn't use it often in pvp because the recast until they realized how bugged it was. The epic modifier giving a boost to singing makes this song even more bad ass since there is no item other then the epic in game which gives a singing % boost.

Even with a 300 second recast time, The stun should not last that long and damage shouldn't be this high. It's the new free tstaff proc on command every 3 minutes.

pretty acurrate

has normal stun resist rate above 100 mr , have tested it

damage isnt too high, stun rarely will break at 4 - 8 seconds but its rare, if it hits normally lasts 12-15. prob should be the other way around.

Are bard chants not subject to pvp spell damage reduction?
